In secret texts, U.S. military officials lamented leaving Americans behind in Kabul
"We are f*cking abandoning American citizens," Army colonel wrote in a frantic series of texts that detail how a group of Americans were rejected at airport as rescue flight awaited.
"We had them out there waving their passport screaming, 'I'm American,'" Yon said Tuesday while appearing on the John Solomon Reports podcast.
The heart-wrenching scenes unfolded this weekend as the U.S. military prepared to exit the capital city on Monday, leaving both the airport and most of the country under Taliban control.
"People were turned away from the gate by our own Army," Yon said.

Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.The level of betrayal is beyond civilian comprehension. There is an adage in the military that no one is left behind, dead or alive. I cannot conceive of a single Soldier, Sailor, Airman, Marine or Spaceman who is good with this.
